Sup guys, long time, no see! After looking back at my Ice cream twins, I didn't like their outcome. So i got a new one and decided to turn the old ones into something i planned since i first saw the twins: Runamuck and Runabout!!

As you can see, Skids is Runabout, and Mudflap is Runamuck. I planned for them to be this way when i first saw the twins. Here is their form as the Ice Cream truck from hell. As soon as i get a second set of twins, Runabout will have Skids's body with the big arms, while Runamuck will be Mudflap with the small arms.

They have black replacing pink, and Orange on the windows to resemble flames.

Bio:
After the Tainted revived Skids and Mudflap, he was surprised to see that some of their residue remained. Using his powers, the Tainted created the Evil twins of the Twins. Runabout, the older of the two, can transfer all the energon he has into his right arm. Runamuck, the younger, can fly. These twins have caused trouble to the Twins, and now, they have decided to destroy Skids and Mudflap to get them out of the way!

Don't forget to C&C!!

Like I said on the other site, I'm always impressed by the creativity that goes into your customs. You always have some great original ideas. Kudos for that.

I feel, though, that your painting has taken a step back (in the wrong direction). A lot of your recent customs have been generally showing signs of improvement, but this piece is pretty disappointing to be honest. Have you ever tried using sprays instead of brushes? I would suggest using some spraycans (if you don't have an airbrush) for the primer and basecoat - you might get better coverage (I can still see a lot of pink spots on Skids as it is) and a more even coat. Also, what paints are you brushing on at present? They look very gunked up.

I'm sure that you are happy with the customs you've been churning out but I just feel that you are not taking advantage of the resources available to you to really push your abilities to the top.

I hope to see more improvement on the next one. :)

I agree with Mampy. I have always enjoyed the crazy direction you take your ideas. I do feel the same as well about your painting on this one.
It seems a little rushed. Purchase some krylon fusion for the base coats, and most important, take time with your brushes. For instance the paint all over the windshield and surrounding areas could be a lot smoother. Just some touching up on the blades and such.

Also for your pictures. Get a large piece of white poster board, a clip on lamp, and hold the camera back a bit more to focus better!! That will help to show off your work more.

Thanks for sharing and keep them coming.
